Alpine: multiple graphicsmagick packages: security update to 1.3.28-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 404818

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

 - In GraphicsMagick 1.3.27, there is an infinite loop and application hang in the ReadBMPImage function
 (coders/bmp.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via an
 image file with a crafted bit-field mask value. (CVE-2018-5685)

 - The AcquireCacheNexus function in magick/pixel_cache.c in GraphicsMagick before 1.3.28 allows remote
 attackers to cause a denial of service (heap overwrite) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
 crafted image file, because a pixel staging area is not used. (CVE-2018-6799)
